We used to be able to do that for years on our iPhones with background audio until google blocked it in the YouTube app, now we're stuck doing it via safari, but still workd... So it's nothing new. No split screen required

I'm actually using my mom's upgrade since she's on my plan (I would have to wait until next year) and then I'm going to give her my iPhone 5. I'll sell her 4 and use it to offset my cost. We'll both be happy.

I'm excited in that my iPhone contract is eligible for an upgrade in March so this will be my next phone (5S).
4S was my first contract iPhone having previously bought my iPhone 3G and iPhone 4 outright SIM free (UK user).
Other than that I'm looking forward to the GM of iOS 7 and hope the iPad build is ready to go and isn't delayed until the new iPads launch next month (if rumours are true).

It's obvious English isn't your first language but you obviously fail to read punctuation because I've read that post and not once does that person say iOS 7 runs better on an iPhone 4 than a 5. Try again.

"Used to", ok... And via Safari, is that even possible without jailbreak? In any case, the splitscreen on TouchWiz is such a simple way of doing it because I never have to mess with anything but the actual YouTube app, in which links clicked in other apps will activate. Besides, if I want to watch the goals from last night's game or whatever I can just slide the screen divider down a bit and continue chatting with my girlfriend in the other window.

Oh it is ever so simple.
I download a song from my iPhone, its already on my iPad, MacBook Pro, and Apple TV. Also I have iTunes Match, so anything I put in my iTunes library is automatically on all my devices without syncing.
I dont see why I would need to Sync from more than one computer, I dont download music files illegally. Plus if I do I have iTunes Match so it eliminates syncing...Yes your right.... its 2013

I love the style of presentation and format of the Apple Keynotes even if it is everything that I expect it. The images are nice and crisp, the videos are smooth and professional and the audience is hyped up..nothing like it in any other ecosystem...Looking forward to DL iOS 7 on Tuesday and trying out the final build!

If you know nothing about Apple and its tick-tock strategy then you are bound to be disappointed like user-name-here. This is a tock keynote, always was slated to be always would be.
There will be no surprises, no major leaps. Nothing but a nice update to the best of breed mobile device there is: faster, better camera, more colour options.
This is how Apple has ALWAYS operated, dating back to the launch of the iMac. If you haven't caught on by now I am shaking my head at you.
Now what I AM excited about is iOS7 being released, seeing wide user and developer adoption and we can see refresh of our entire app ecosystem. That is genuinely possibly the most exciting thing that has happened in years.

Hmm, that seems weird, and I suppose YMMV, but I was able to (just to name a few): facilitate several major business deals, share documents, capture my family/trips/events in photos and videos, listen to music, coordinate meetings, handle video collaboration, play videos on TVs while traveling, plan parties through FB, make appointments, reserve tables, listen to podcasts, program our DVR, buy movie tickets, transfer money, entertain my 5 year old ... all on my iPhone 4S.
The screen size didn't prevent me from being effective in business, entertaining myself/family and provide me a mechanism for sharing and communication.

Good way to state it
And it is a very successful business model for Apple, highly profitable too (unless I am mistaken..)Thanks!!

The GM from what I'm hearing is going to be out on the 10th if they have their keynote then! I remember that from last year too! They will release it to the public a week later I do believe

The 10th is the day iOS 7 is released to carriers and developers. It will be the GM. This same GM will start leaking out for other savvy users to download later that day.
iOS won't officially be released to the public until the day the iPhone 5S goes on sale or the night before.
Ohhh. That makes sense.

I would actually like one to compliment my iPad 3 as an eBook reader.

You see, SakuraSuki is one of those teens who stare at their android home screen all day, looking at how "awesome" their animated wallpaper is. (and of course, troll on apple forums for the other half of their day).

Haha good for you! It's a good opportunity to take a day off, relax and watch the keynote live!

don't forget the ensuing aftermath where all fanboys and normal people alike state their opinions about the state of Apple and the products they are releasing..
